Efficient kNN Search in Public Transportation Networks

Summary: Lightweight, non-path-indexed structure for kNN on public-transportation graphs that attains near-optimal query time and scalable index construction. Empirically outperforms prior methods by up to 10^4× in query latency and 10^2× in index build time. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
